The other day KT showed you how Ukuncut are hypocrites when it comes to tax avoidance ( Link ) (KT`s favorite was them moaning about tax avoidance in the tax avoiding Guardian)

But today the Times shows another spot of hypocrisy, They say the the Labour party has avoided tax :

Lets see what Ed Miliband said about tax avoidance a little while ago :

So Ed Miliband (tax avoider) leads a party that tax avoids and promotes a tax avoiding media out let (The Guardian) yet claims tax avoidance is wrong, round KT`s way that`s what we call a hypocrite!

Update : Here is a Labour shadow minster on tax avoidance row a few years ago :
via liarpoliticians
So will Ed and Labour pay "their fair share" and "come clean" or claim that as it is "within the rules" its OK for them.....

So KT had poured himself a ice cold glass of coke (other soft drinks available) and got ready to watch highlights of the Roses T20 match from yesterday evening on Sky Sports Ashes channel, KT was quite surprised when this greeted him :

Readers are aware the KT is a cricket fan, KT loves test cricket and even tho not so much of a fan KT watches ODI cricket and domestic T20 (KT believes that cricket should be a fair contest between bat and ball, in ODI cricket the bias is in favor of the batsman and therefore not a fair contest between bat and ball), however KT does buy into it as it does attract younger fans and is great entertainment, KT can buy into the dancers,the bouncy castles and the off field entertainment.

Ultimately the one thing that will make sure that people come back is the product, the game, the batting bowling and fielding and this is where i have a beef, before the game starts you have the coin toss and interviews with captains at the end of each innings a player is interviewed so why on earth do we have in play interviews with players? First of all i like the Umpires being miked up and listening to what they say (the exchange between Lancs bowler and umpire a few weeks ago), but players? how much more tacky can we make this? What other sport interviews players while they are playing, we are forever told that players take T20 seriously and with the IPL contracts on offer there is a lot riding on it.

I mean seriously imagine suggesting Messi while on the pitch for Barcalona or Andy Murray in between sets at Wimbledon should be interviewed by people commentating on the game. How are players meant to concentrate 100% when at any moment Nick Knight suddenly comes through in there ear? Last week we had Nick Knight suggesting field positions to player on field which makes this look amateur and a joke.

The product on the pitch is what will make people come back, let the players give 100% in taking part in that and then after the game interview them.

Let the players play and the commentators commentate but please stop this tacky and crass section of the coverage.

Exposing the State actions makes you a traitor( as Trump has Tweeted ) and should be punished via death, KT likes to call it transparency and finding out how the state spends our money,It is no good being "safe" if you are not "free", If politicians dont like it then they are free to resign and move to the socialist paradise of North Korea!

"The US city of Detroit in
Michigan has become the largest American city ever to file for
bankruptcy, with debts of at least $15bn (£10bn).

State-appointed emergency manager Kevyn Orr asked a federal judge to place the city into bankruptcy protection.If it is approved, he would be allowed to liquidate city assets to satisfy creditors and pensions." Maybe we should have an "Obama Rule" , When the President claims something bet on the opposite being the truth.

That is according to this Labour MP who introduced this ten minute bill :

"People who are not registered to vote should not expect to get state pensions and other benefits, says a Labour MP."

"She said it would restore millions to the electoral register at a stroke and "ensure they engage" in democracy."

But even more breathtaking is this :
"If you don't like living in a democracy, fine, but don't expect all the good things that democracy offers in return," she said."
First of all the right to withhold your vote (consent ) is also part of the democratic process(KT is a supporter of the "None of the above" option), it allows people who think all parties are corrupt and full of lairs (and people who dont care about politics) to not consent to being governed by thieves.

The other point i want to make is this, what happens if you dont register to vote, The MP says you wont get state benefits, does it mean that in return the state will not tax you, will allow you to keep your own money and make your own choices? Is this really an "opt out" of the state?

""If you don't like living in a democracy, fine, but don't expect all the good things that democracy offers in return,"

So if i dont consent (register to vote) then i wont receive benefits and i wont be taxed, if so KT is attracted to this. If KT would still be taxed then the idea is one sided and will only benefit the state!

Well thats what happens after a selection meeting, according to Evening Standard after Hampstead and Kilburn selection trouble kicked of :

"Police are today investigating a brawl outside a Labour selection
contest which left a man needing hospital treatment after being
head-butted.

The 53-year-old was taken to hospital by ambulance after the incident yesterday afternoon.The
assault is believed to have taken place when demonstrators protesting
about housing issues clashed with Labour members leaving the meeting,
held to determine who represents Labour in Hampstead and Kilburn for the
2015 election."
I see those caring "One nation" socialist are setting a good example!

However, In an unfortunate incident the Standard rub it in a bit :

"Ms Siddiq, who is a cabinet member at Camden, beat fellow councillor
Sally Gimson and Sophie Linden, deputy mayor of Hackney council and
former special adviser to Labour big-hitter David Blunkett."

A bit of "beating" and "big hitter", anyone would think that Labour are taking advice from Eric Joyce......

The other week KT brought you this story about Trans abuse in Greece :

KT himself was horrified and shocked about this and tried to do find out more about this and if possible highlight it, in doing that KT sent the original blog post to Michael Fabricant MP who returned with this reply :

.@Ontablets Have asked Foreign Sec if he is aware of 'Operation in Zeus' in Greece & if he@s discussed this with Greek government
— Michael Fabricant (@Mike_Fabricant) July 5, 2013

True to his word Mr Fabricant did table the questions , these are the questions and replies :

To ask the Secretary of State
for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what reports he has received on
Operation Zeus in Greece; and what discussions he has had with the Greek
government concerning the treatment of EU nationals affected by this operation.

David Lidington(Minister of State (Europe and NATO), Foreign and Commonwealth Office; Aylesbury, Conservative)

I have received regular reports form the British embassy in Athens about Operation Zeus and the wider migration issues faced in Greece. The British embassy in Athens has not been alerted to any cases of EU nationals being affected by Operation Zeus.Both the Secretary of State for the Home Department, my right hon. Friend Mrs May, and the Minister for Immigration, my hon. Friend Mr Harper, have discussed Operation Zeus with the Greek Minister for Public Order and Citizen Protection."

To ask the Secretary of State
for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has held with
his Greek counterparts regarding human rights abuses in that country;
and if he will make a statement.

David Lidington(Minister of State (Europe and NATO), Foreign and Commonwealth Office; Aylesbury, Conservative)

All EU
member states have committed to respecting human rights through the
Treaty on EU and the Charter of Fundamental Rights. The British
ambassador in Athens regularly discusses human rights with Ministers and
senior officials, including issues around racism and the asylum
process. In recent months the Greek Government
has taken positive steps to tackle racism with the introduction of a
directorate within the police force dedicated to tackling racism and
legislation aimed directly at combating racism and xenophobia. We also
expect Greece's recent efforts to develop further their system of
processing asylum claims to improve conditions for migrants.

KT is still concerned about this story, when a country is in chaos like Greece the rights of minorities can easily be brushed aside!

KT would also like to thank Mr Fabricant for keeping his word and taking time out to ask the minister of this concern (despite this blog publishing Mr Fabricants embarrassing "Cock Up" the following day), Thank you Mr Fabricant :)

KT is disturbed at this story from Greece , actually disturbed is not the word, KT is fuming about this :

""There are now at least 5,000 people languishing in these hellholes simply for existing — and this month, while warning trans* men and women to "return to normal" or else, the Greek government announced that camp capacity is about to double."

Now Greece is a member of the EU which says :

and :

KT suggests that any money due to Greece from other EU members is withheld until this barbaric policy is halted and those responsible held to account! Via RobertHamling Update : An MP has said that they will table a question to Foreign Sec :

.@Ontablets Have asked Foreign Sec if he is aware of 'Operation in Zeus' in Greece & if he@s discussed this with Greek government

"Sex And The City may have sent sales of Manolo Blahnik shoes soaring while also making Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall household names.But one threatened species has been on the wane ever since the US show hit the screens in 1998, scientists say – pubic lice." Maybe that is the view from Metro towers tho ;)
